Could someone please provide some non-technical advice about why it takes each page a minimum of 45 seconds to load, and then "Network Error (tcp_error) A communication error occurred: "Operation timed out" appears in a white box in the red area of the page header.
This has happened every time I've tried to browse the PCWorld site over the last week or 10 days, and only happens on this site. It's a bit much to have to wait a minimum of 45 seconds for a page to load, I think. Thanks all. Cheers

741593 2009-02-03 19:42:00 k8smum, is your ISP TelstraClear by any chance?The ISP is TelstraClear. What's the connection? Jen (38)
741594 2009-02-03 19:54:00 The ISP is TelstraClear. What's the connection?Just thinking the same thing - the problem with the site loading slow appears to be the ads, I'm with telstra, and PF1 is the only site I go to that has this problem, and some sites have even more ads than here.

I have tried PCworld from people who have xtra / xnet - all the same slowwwwww

When I put in the ad blockers for FF and IE - PF1 loads fast - that would indicate its a PC world problem.

741595 2009-02-03 21:02:00 Yes, we're with Telstra. Things seem much better today. Pages loading within a few seconds. Those ads are REALLY annoying though.
Cheers

741599 2009-02-03 23:17:00 The TelstraClear connection is that those messages are generated by their webcache/proxy when it's unable to load something. It effectively means the remote resource has timed out. Erayd (23)
741600 2009-02-03 23:28:00 Seems a bit Odd that PC world appears to be the only one its having troubles with (that I know of) as mentioned before - been to others places, they have xtra, xnet same issue - slow or not loading. wainuitech (129)
